Anna Shead lives with her family in Cumbria, surrounded by fields, fells, sheep and other assorted animals.
Writing has been an integral part of her life since childhood, so having her first novel, The Wisdom That Guides You Home, published is the fulfilment of a long-held dream.
After losing both her parents, Anna started writing poetry, which helped her connect to herself, make sense of the world around her, and explore the complexities of simply being human. These themes are reflected in her characters’ stories. She hopes that her words will resonate with her readers.
When not writing or painting, Anna enjoys singing with a local choir, sewing with her fellow ‘Bees’, and practising Reiki with people and animals.
